The contact has a 2005 chalet, when going on vacation yes the axle broke. The trailer was being towed at 55-60 mph. When the axle broke it caused damage to several parts of the travel trailer and tire. There was smoke damage from the tire and structural damage to the cabinets and under carriage. The rear axle that broke was the only axle on the trailer. There was no damage to the vehicle that was towing the trailer. The trailer was towed to the dealer, and there has not yet been a determination about the repairs. Upon the vehicle owners inspection, they discovered that the axle was covered with rust and had many cracks. The police were called, but no police report was filed since there was no accident.
